Devil Anse Hatfield's Final Resting Place

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RipcjdeRvYw

This is a video I took of the Hatfield Cemetery in Sarah Ann, West Virginia. There used to be a sign at the entrance that said:

"Devil Anse Hatfield is buried here. He was the leader of his clan in the bitter family feud with the McCoys. A life-sized statue ed from photographs and imported from Italy marks his grave. "

Either the weather or vandals have torn it down.

(I tried to post it here but it I couldn't get it to work. The youtube video is blurry. There is a much clearer copy at my multiply blog along with other video from the cemetery)
